James Allan Bücher

»Jede Sprache schenkt mir einen anderen Freiraum«, schreibt der Dichter Said. Das vorliegende Buch erzählt von den Mühen und dem Lohn der Mehrsprachigkeit, von dem was ist, und dem, was sein könnte. Und es macht deutlich, dass es an der Zeit ist, sich von überkommenen Vorstellungen zu verabschieden: Einsprachigkeit ist kein »Normalfall«, kulturelle »Homogenität« eine im 19. Jahrhundert geborene Chimäre. Die Wirklichkeit ist und war schon immer komplexer. AutorInnen unterschiedlicher Fachrichtungen machen sich an die Erforschung der polyphonen Sprachlandschaften bei Kindern und Erwachsenen, in Politik und Gesellschaft, in der Literatur und den Medien.

All that we achieve and all that we fail to achieve is the direct result of our own thoughts."Self-control is strength. Right thought is mastery. Calmness is power. " ― James Allen, As a Man Thinketh"As a Man Thinketh" is a literary essay by James Allen, first published in 1902. In more than a century it has become an inspirational classic, selling millions of copies worldwide and bringing faith, inspiration, and self healing to all who have encountered it. The title comes from the Bible: "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." -- Proverbs, chapter 23, verse 7. As himself Allen describes, "It shows how, in his own thought-world, each man holds the key to every condition, good or bad, that enters into his life, and that, by working patiently and intelligently upon his thoughts, he may remake his life, and transform his circumstances. ...and it can be carried in the pocket." Too many mortals strive to improve only their wordly position--and too few seek spiritual betterment. Such is the problem James Allen faced in his own time. The ideas he found in his inner-most heart after great searching guided him as they will guide you. A True Classic that Belongs on Every Bookshelf!
